Ad network 2026 - provide feedback here

[shaunj66]

We have switched to yet another new ad network.

Please use this thread to report any browsing issues specifically caused by ads on GBAtemp.

Most ads include a "Report Ad" button so please use it to report any issues with ad content. There's no need to post about it on the forums, as we'll just direct you to that button.

Also, please keep in mind that these ads arent there just for the fun of it. We need revenue to keep servers going which is becoming increasingly difficult for us and our niche.

Remember you can browse GBAtemp ad-free by purchasing an Account upgrade! You can also enjoy other perks and member benefits!

We're aware of an issue where full screen ads are being served which interupt browsing. We have demanded these be disabled so no need to tell us about this one

I like that the obnoxious cookie notice from the previous ad network finally went away. The new notice only takes 2 clicks to reject cookies which is a huge improvement from the previous 10+ clicks.

Okay... I don't know if it's okay (I mean, I don't give an f...) but FINALLY I'm seeing NSFW-ish ads over here. I swear I'm going somewhere with this.

Now, usually I'd complain about ads showing me Walmart instead of Hot Single Mothers in my area, but these kind of ads should be taken in account by admins and their provider, and again, I don't usually think of the children... but if the site has children then these ads should be filtered out of the site.

All i'm saying is: Your ad provider could (and will) show the wrong ad to the wrong person.

PS: Show me more of these ads! K' thx

I'm not sure if this is known, but the 'Group Events' section of a group doesn't show anything, no options to create anything.

Also, using the GBATEMP smilies on mobile does not work, when you click nothing happens. Thanks

As of a few days ago, this is what I see when I go on the site. Is this really the intended behavior? There doesn't seem to be a report button and they keep spawning.

It was garbage in 2025. It's still dogshit in 2026.

You know you can just post your thoughts on your main account, we won't ban you or anything?

This is my main account. The ads were so bad, I decided to make an account and share my opinion.

Is the intended ad setup on mobile supposed to be I'm only allowed to see 1/5th of the screen at any one time?

Thank you for feedback like this especially with the screenshot. We'll share this with our ad network.
